Book
Hardcover. Condition: Good. No Jacket. 2nd Edition. Second edition, revised and augmented. This title is one of the important books in the Zamorano Eighty list of books on California and the American West. Octavo rebound in library-type, green buckram. B&W illustrations. Condition: rebound in a pretty clunky binding, but judging from the absence of library markings, was probably done as a utilitarian measure. The binding is rubbed & a bit worn; there is a previous owner's inked and phone number on the 1st free endpaper and above that is the rubber-stamp of an old L. A. bookshop that's no longer in business. Endpapers are toned. Otherwise, this a good, tight, and very serviceable copy. Pages: xxxiii, 732.

From the dust jacket: "What gives Sixty Years in California its vitality and lasting appeal? The answer is that it is a very personal and unique account of a dusty, muddy adobe village emerging from pueblo days and of a young city rising in strength. With the wealth of individual recollections and the enormous number of its characters, it brings the world of old Los Angeles to life. It continues to be Southern California's landmark chronicle."

At The End Of 1885, Newmark Retired From The Grocery Business To Devote More Time To His Real Estate And Investment Pursuits. In 1886, He And Four Other Businessmen: His Nephew Kaspare Cohn, John D. Bicknell, Stephen M. White, And I.W. Hellman?Purchased A 5,000-Acre (20 Km2) Ranch Located In East Los Angeles Called Rancho Repetto. The Land Had Been Owned By An Italian Settler Named Alessandro Repetto, Who Had Bequeathed The Ranch To His Brother Antonio. Newmark's Group Bought The Inheritance For Us$60,000, Or About $12 Per Acre. In May 1899, Newmark Subdivided The Tract Owned By Him And His Nephew, After Contracting With William Mulholland To Design And Construct A Suitable Water System For The New Settlement.[9] Accounts Differ As To The Actual Size Of Newmark And Cohn's Parcel, But It Was Somewhere Around 1,200 To 1,500 Acres (6.1 Km2).

He Wrote A Memoir, Sixty Years In Southern California: 1853?1913, Which Has Been Cited In Dozens Of Academic Papers And Books. It Is Described As The Los Angeles Equivalent Of A Pepys Diary.
